We gave them each, as our compliments, a copy of the Directory. They were very pleased and commented on what a professional source it was. Sothebys curators often use publications such as this as a resource for their departments."
"The response to my page has been great. I have received many inquiries regarding the availability of my work for inclusion in shows, and also requesting my involvement in community programs. I currently have 7 paintings in a show on capitol hill, and am in discussions with Hotel Helix to display work there as well, all as a direct result from being
seen in the directory." "I include the WPA\C Artist Directory in the promotional materials I take with me to shows outside the DC area. Collectors of my work like to see my paintings and interviews in publications, and the directory is an impressive compliment to my growing body of printed material. As well, i have made new contacts with area artists and galleries whom have been introduced to my work through the directory." "It has been worth it's weight in shows!"
